Hozy is out now on Xbox Series X|S, and it’s an Xbox Play Anywhere title. tinyBuild and Come On Studio’s cosy home renovation game launched on 9 November 2026, and it’s £9.99 on the Xbox Store until 23 November, down from £12.49.
If your idea of a good evening is a mop, a tin of paint and finding the exact right corner for a beanbag, this one is aimed squarely at you. There are no timers, no scores and no penalties. You clean, repair and decorate neglected rooms at your own pace while slowly bringing a forgotten neighbourhood back to life.
What you actually do in Hozy
Each level is a run-down space with its own personal story. You scrub away the grime, rip out what’s broken with tools such as a mop, squeegee and crowbar, then furnish the room from a curated set of furniture and décor that tinyBuild says is designed to always look good together. You can place and rotate items freely and match wall colours and flooring from a set palette, so there’s no wrong answer, just your answer.
The Xbox version launches with nine levels, plus two bonus modes. Game Plus lets you revisit levels with new lighting options and alternate furniture sets. Sandbox mode removes the restrictions and opens up an expanded catalogue with every available item. There’s also a photo mode with filters and camera controls for showing off your handiwork, and the soundtrack comes from the composer of Stray and Seasons After Fall.
Play Anywhere, and more to come
The Xbox Store listing confirms Xbox Play Anywhere, so one purchase covers Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC, with handheld also listed under “Play with”. It’s single player and rated PEGI 3.
tinyBuild says console players can expect seasonal updates, plus free and premium DLC, though nothing has been dated or priced yet and the Store doesn’t list any add-ons today. Hozy isn’t new to everyone either: the publisher says more than 500,000 people have already been renovating rooms since the game’s first release earlier this year.
There’s no sign of Hozy on Game Pass, so treat this one as a straight purchase.
